India 322-6 (88 ovs) vs SL | Scorecard

Ashwin picks another single off Pushpakumara to take India to 297 for five in 80 overs but Sri Lanka are not taking the second new ball straightaway.

Ashwin picks a single off the first ball with the field well spread around. Saha drives Sandakan through the off-side for a couple and then sweeps the spinner fine for two more runs to take India past the 300-run mark, in the 81st over.

Sri Lanka take the second new ball at the start of the 84th over with left-arm spinner Pushpakumara continuing to bowl. He gets one to grip and turn but Ashwin does well to keep it out before he survives a close shout for LBW.

The left-arm spinner overpitches as Ashwin plays a nice drive through the covers for one.

Pace from the other end as Fernando comes back into the attack. The second ball is on the pads as Ashwin glances it fine for a four.

Two balls later, Sri Lanka appeal for leg before wicket against Ashwin but the umpire is not interested. The hosts take the DRS but turns out it was a big inside edge as they waste one of their two reviews.

The last ball is again on the pads as Ashwin clips it to fine leg for a couple.

A maiden over from Pushpakumara before Sri Lanka bring back Lahiru in place of Fernando, who just bowled one over with the second new ball.

He starts with a full toss which Ashwin drives to deep point and two balls later Saha hits another full toss to sweeper cover for one.

Ashwin gets the fifth ball through midwicket for two runs as he continues to keep the scoreboard ticking.

Change of ends for Fernando as he takes over from Pushpakumara to make it fast bowlers from both ends.

The move works as Fernando strikes with the wicket of Ashwin, who is brilliantly caught by wicketkeeper Dickwella. Ashwin played a handy innings of 31, before he got an edge as the wicketkeeper dived full length to take the catch is front of the first slip fielder.
